[QUOTE=A B.A. Survivor;37123622]That's not true! I am very popular on Facebook [I]and[/I] have several corpses in my crawlspace.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=The Worm;37123882]I don't have a facebook, so I spend my free time killing people.[/QUOTE] Okay good, I'm not the only one. We should make a social network for mass murderers so we can connect.
[QUOTE=FlakAttack;37123725]HR departments considering people not being on Facebook a bad thing? What the fuck? Every school or workplace I've spent time in strictly banned Facebook access during the day.[/QUOTE]Its not that they necessarily consider it a bad thing. The problem is, it means that your employer loses a very effective means of keeping track of you. If you have a Facebook profile, they can use that to see what you say, where you go, what you do. So if someone comes along without a Facebook account, they lose an otherwise plentiful source of information.

I can agree with the article. Nothing's "correlation or causation" about this, it's just a warning sign. People who don't use Facebook are more likely to be unsocial fucks. Unsocial fucks are more likely to be murderers. WITHOUT stating any causative relationship.

I have a Facebook account but rarely do anything in Facebook. Does that make me only half insane?

Disregard the tons of crazy bitches on facebook that could probably rip one's asshole in two for saying they are fat.

[QUOTE=LunchboxOfDoom;37123813]What a fucking moron.[/QUOTE] Hitler was not on Facebook. Are you suggesting that young people should have dated Hitler? It's a legitimate point
[QUOTE]Psychologists have noted that Holmes, along with several noted mass murderers, have lacked any real friends.[/QUOTE] Since when are random strangers on a social networking sites considered ''real friends''?
Well parhaps it somewhat works out that way. I see non- Facebookers as antisocial.
[QUOTE=wickedplayer494;37124029]Facebook is a cesspool of shit. There are plenty of reasons not to have an account there.[/QUOTE] When it started, it was ok I guess. Now, its made of Adalia, "meaningful" (or in other words, bullshit) phrases in pictures, 1like1respect bullshit in photos that are close to being shocking pictures, girls trying to be ~~deep~~ while looking like whores and who knows what else. They say Hi5 (another social bullshit) was worse because of the shitty pages full of fucked up colors and shitty music, but facebook is probably 90% made of shit.

[B]Psychologists have noted that Holmes, along with several noted mass murderers, have lacked any real friends.[/B] [/QUOTE] Of fucking course you don't have a facebook account if you don't have any real friends. What else are you going to use your account for, play farmville?
[QUOTE=Elecbullet;37124129]Well parhaps it somewhat works out that way. I see non- Facebookers as antisocial.[/QUOTE] That's a bit of a rash judgement don't you think

While I can't speak for everyone, I can say that, in my case, I don't use it because I don't like the fact that they track you online and then sell what information they collect about you to private companies. Sure, it's really easy to delete the cookies that they use to do this, but it's just an unnecessary hassle. That and I prefer actually interacting with people in the physical world when I want to be social with them than digitally interacting with them.
[QUOTE=Verratene;37124177]That's a bit of a rash judgement don't you think[/QUOTE] No. Ask social people at school if they use Facebook. Then ask nerds and obviously antisocial people.
OH FFS the reason I try to avoid fb is so universities and employers don't find something I don't want them to but now the tables have turned I guess

Facebook can be a very useful tool as long as you add only the right people as friends.
What if it goes in reverse, I had a crapload of friends, talked to them on facebook. Now I can't, therefore I deactivated my facebook. Therefore I'm insane?
Actually I'm pretty sure Breivik did have a facebook This is just bad reporting
[QUOTE=Elecbullet;37124207]No. Ask social people at school if they use Facebook. Then ask nerds and obviously antisocial people.[/QUOTE] wowe! antisocial people don't use a social network who woulda thunk it
[QUOTE=Elecbullet;37124207]No. Ask social people at school if they use Facebook. Then ask nerds and obviously antisocial people.[/QUOTE] Go look at [url]http://reddit.com/r/facepalm[/url]. Come back with your thoughts. Chances are, most of the people there are dumb kids in schools.
I was outraged at how retarded this was until I saw the Daily Mail link, and then I realized that this bullshit is normal for them.

Digital interaction FACILITATES physical interaction. About privacy, I don't consider it very important. I just don't see much bad that will come out of it. Google tracks me. The end result is I see computer ads instead of Claire's or JC Penney.
